Jeff discovered that one of his favorite rock groups, Vertical Horizon
was scheduled to play in Roosevelt Utah (population 6,000). Upon
further investigation, he also discovered that it was put on by the park
and rec district and was free. Since we happened to be in Utah that
day, he made arrangements to go.We were hesitant right up until the end, it just seemed so bizarre that
we weren't really sure if it was going to happen. But it did! We
walked right up and sat on the second row. Once they started playing,
we walked up and stood right near the stage! It was fantastic. We love
their music and it was so fun to hear them play it live.
The lead singer and songwriter, Matt Scannell, was very personable and told us stories about when he wrote the songs and sometimes about his inspiration. It felt really close and personal. We had a great time listening to the music and being there. After the concert, we stayed to get autographs from the band. What an experience for a first concert!

that's so fun! I love vertical horizon. I also love free park shows. they do them here a bunch during the summer, but sometimes they get crowded (sometimes not though). I'm so glad that you went and that you took the kiddos. -jenny
